power on and off on the tv on the green
board we discussed it in class and I had
not seen the word on the tv
til afterward when I got home
the word followed me
then went into the tv before
I started to dream of the power
being yanked off by the electrician
in my nightmare he tells me not
to go forward and not to pass the power
onto the next fortune teller
or gas god of the sulphur springs
that re-emerge in the power sweat
dreams of mountains and hot hot
waters the way the muscle releases
safety in that power
we return to the core of the lecture
then the tv turns it off for all of them
like the power cord being tripped over
and ripped out of the socket
